Le St-Urbain is described as absolutely delicious, with a frequently changing menu, a strong wine list, and a warm, lively neighborhood atmosphere. Reviews highlight thoughtful flavors and high-quality execution across dishes, from soups and seafood to inventive desserts, and note the bread is delightful and the wine and dessert pairings are well done. Service quality is mixed, with some praising an attentive, knowledgeable team and a caring approach to dietary needs, while others report rude and condescending responses and occasional cold temperatures in the dining room. Concerns about portions versus price appear in some notes, but the restaurant is widely regarded as a top option in Montreal, especially for tasting menus and wine pairings, and is described as a standout in the Ahuntsic area.
Nous avons passé une excellente soirée au St-Urbain pour la St-Valentin. Le menu découverte accord mets fut un énorme succès. Tout y était. Portions, saveurs, beauté, tempo, accords vins. Service impeccable. Excellente play liste ! Pas trop de bruit dans le resto. Ça vaut vraiment le coût & le déplacement sur toute la ligne. Merci :)

Jamais déçus de notre expérience à cette adresse. Nous choisissons souvent le menu "la cuisine s'occupe de vous" & avons toujours été choyés. Personnel professionnel & attentionné.
My onglet de boeuf was chewy & had fat in it. Pricey for the size, limited choices, not made for everyone, don't go there on an empty stomach, you'll be wanting to eat again after you're done.
It had been at least a decade I had not eaten at Le St Urbain. My memories were all positive from that last meal. I arrived with a friend for lunch & was a little surprised to see a rather empty room. I go to restaurants for the food & the experience. First things first is make your clients comfortable. On this mild autumn day I was surprised that the room was uncomfortably cool. For appetizers we chose from the board a beet salad with fennel & pecans. fresh & delicious while I ordered sea urchins. My experience with sea urchins is almost entirely related to sushi. The strong flavours generally are avoided by some while their texture excludes many more. I on teh other hand welcome both in this case they were served on a bed of ice along with the urchin casing. The chilled shells may have had an effect on the dish. I can't recall the other ingredients however the particular taste of urchin was so mild you could make a case for a complete absence. For mains we both had the scallops which were a treasure. The scallops were beautifully browned to one side while the other was still moist & tender. To add to this the sauce which had a kick to it was a good foil to the sweetness of the scallops. We ended the meal with a sherbet that was quite tasty.
Superbe ambiance dans un petit restaurant de quartier. Le personnel est très sympathique (mention spéciale à Clément!) & toujours à l'écoute des demandes spéciales. La cuisine est excellente. Le chef est capable de faire un menu découverte végétarien si certaines personnes ont des préférences alimentaires parmi un groupe.
Excellent restaurant gastronomique, le menu dégustation était tout simplement à tomber par terre! Service impeccable, accord mets-vins réfléchis, tout simplement parfait!
